About this book

Not all loves belong to the living.

Recently widowed Lucie Muire is determined to build a new life for herself and her two young children in a seaside cottage overlooking the bay. But her late husband’s family is threatening to take the children from her care.

There is also the small matter of the cottage’s former owner.

The stubborn spirit of Captain Edward Greig still walks the halls of Greystone Cottage — and he has no intention of leaving.

Against all reason, Lucie and the ghostly captain reach an uneasy understanding, each determined to protect the future of the home they now share.

But the demands of the living world cannot be held at bay forever. As pressure mounts, Lucie is forced to consider what she is willing to risk — and whether the life she is beginning to imagine at Greystone Cottage can ever truly be hers.

A haunting seaside romance of second chances, quiet defiance, and the unexpected bond between two souls who refuse to surrender what they have found.

Reader Reviews

A fresh perspective on a classic ghost story

February 3, 2023

This beautiful novel breathes new life into the old familiar tale if a ghost falling in love with a mortal. But Lucie and the Captain is so much more than that! This recreation will make you feel everything -the heartbrokenness of Lucie the widow, the grumpy bluntness of a Captain still angry at himself for dying, the wilyness of family with false kindness and ill intentions….the cast is all here, and even some new faces. Katherine Lange has created a world of hope and magic and love that...

A few anachronisms, but do not detract from an excellent retelling of the Ghost &Mrs. Muir story

The book presents a thorough look into the heroine 's emotional background and makes her more the center of the story. The slapstick created by the Claymore character has been removed and pieces of the book, movie and TV show are well blended into a sensible whole. ) 2 people found this helpful
